Pastor under attack for saying Mr Ibu died because he didn’t use his life to serve God
A pastor has received severe backlash for comparing the late comedian, John Okafor, better known as Mr. Ibu with the General Overseer of The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor EA Adeboye.
Just minutes after the death of John Okafor, aka Mr Ibu, was announced, Pastor Fortune Makarios took to Facebook to suggest that Mr Ibu, who was younger than Adeboye, died at age 62 because he did not use his life to serve God.
He added that Adeboye is still healthy at 82.
He wrote, “The Man on the left is a Pastor and He is Celebrating His 82 Years old Birthday today.
“The brother on the right is a comedian and He just died at 62 today
“What do you learn from this?
“Use your Life to Serve GOD. UNTIMELY DEATH SHALL NOT BE YOUR PORTION IN JESUS NAME.”
